this tool is default installed on azure linux hosts, can resolve my problem as an exception and have but the tool is common enough in cloud environments that it deserves inclusion.

* [New Rule] Kubernetes Container Created with Excessive Linux Capabilites
This rule detects a container deployed with one or more dangerously permissive Linux capabilities. Using the Linux capabilities feature you can grant certain privileges to a process without granting all the privileges of the root user. Added capabilities entitle containers in a pod with additional privileges that can be used to change core processes and networking settings of a cluster. An attacker with the ability to deploy a container with added capabilities could use this for further execution, lateral movement, or privilege escalation within a cluster or the host machine. This rule detects the following capabilities and leaves space for the exception of trusted permissive containers specific to your environment:
BPF - Allow creating BPF maps, loading BPF Type Format (BTF) data, retrieve JITed code of BPF programs, and more.
DAC_READ_SEARCH - Bypass file read permission checks and directory read and execute permission checks.
NET_ADMIN - Perform various network-related operations.
SYS_ADMIN - Perform a range of system administration operations.
SYS_BOOT - Use reboot(2) and kexec_load(2), reboot and load a new kernel for later execution.
SYS_MODULE - Load and unload kernel modules.
SYS_PTRACE - Trace arbitrary processes using ptrace(2).
SYS_RAWIO - Perform I/O port operations (iopl(2) and ioperm(2)).
SYSLOG - Perform privileged syslog(2) operations.

* [New Rule] Kubernetes Suspicious Assignment of Controller Service Account
Issues
--
#2034
Summary
--
This rule detects a request to attach a controller service account to an existing or new pod running in the kube-system namespace. By default, controllers running as part of the API Server utilize admin-equivalent service accounts hosted in the kube-system namespace. Controller service accounts aren't normally assigned to running pods and could indicate adversary behavior within the cluster. An attacker that can create or modify pods or pod controllers in the kube-system namespace, can assign one of these admin-equivalent service accounts to a pod and abuse their powerful token to escalate privileges and gain complete cluster control.
* Update privilege_escalation_suspicious_assignment_of_controller_service_account.toml
updated query after testing
* Update non-ecs-schema.json
added new field used in query update

* [New Rule] Kubernetes Denied Service Account Request
## Issue
#2040
## Summary
This rule detects when a service account makes an unauthorized request for resources from the API server. Service accounts follow a very predictable pattern of behavior. A service account should never send an unauthorized request to the API server. This behavior is likely an indicator of compromise or of a problem within the cluster. An adversary may have gained access to credentials/tokens and this could be an attempt to access or create resources to facilitate further movement or execution within the cluster.
* Update discovery_denied_service_account_request.toml
updated the query after testing to reduce false positives
* Update rules/integrations/kubernetes/discovery_denied_service_account_request.toml

* [New Rule] Kubernetes Anonymous Request Authorized
## Issue
#2038
## Summary
This rule detects when an unauthenticated user request is authorized within the cluster. Attackers may attempt to use
anonymous accounts to gain initial access to the cluster or to avoid attribution of their activities within the cluster.
This rule excludes the /healthz, /livez and /readyz endpoints which are commonly accessed anonymously.
